Sterols regulate ER-export dynamics of secretory cargo protein ts-O45-GHeiko Runz
Cell Biology and Cell Biophysics Programme, European Molecular Biology Laboratory, EMBL, Heidelberg, Germany
EMBO J 25:2953-65. 2006..Consistent with this, membrane turnover of the COPII component Sec23p is delayed in sterol-depleted cells. Altogether, our results demonstrate the importance of sterol levels in COPII mediated ER-export...
DetecTiff: a novel image analysis routine for high-content screening microscopyDaniel F Gilbert
Cell Biology Biophysics Unit, EMBL, Heidelberg, Germany
J Biomol Screen 14:944-55. 2009..The results show that DetecTiff can be applied with high consistency for automated quantitative analysis of image data (e.g., from large-scale functional RNAi screening projects)...
Niemann-Pick Type C disease: characterizing lipid levels in patients with variant lysosomal cholesterol storageCarolina Tängemo
Institute of Human Genetics, University of Heidelberg, Heidelberg, Germany
J Lipid Res 52:813-25. 2011..Taken together, our approach opens perspectives not only to support diagnosis, but also to better characterize mechanisms impacting cholesterol accumulation in NPC patient-derived cells...
Identification of cholesterol-regulating genes by targeted RNAi screeningFabian Bartz
Institute of Human Genetics, University of Heidelberg, Seminarstrasse 2, Heidelberg, Germany
Cell Metab 10:63-75. 2009..Taken together, TMEM97 and other factors described here are promising to yield further insights into how cells control cholesterol levels...
NPC-db, a Niemann-Pick type C disease gene variation databaseHeiko Runz
Institute of Human Genetics, University of Heidelberg, Heidelberg, Germany
Hum Mutat 29:345-50. 2008..The user is encouraged to search contents and submit novel information, thereby contributing to generate a valuable open-access tool that will allow a better understanding of the molecular and clinical details of NPC disease...
Inhibition of intracellular cholesterol transport alters presenilin localization and amyloid precursor protein processing in neuronal cellsHeiko Runz
Center for Molecular Biology, University of Heidelberg, 69120 Heidelberg, Germany
J Neurosci 22:1679-89. 2002..Our results suggest that the subcellular distribution of cholesterol may be an important factor in how cholesterol alters Abeta production and the risk of Alzheimer's disease...
